AgriLife Extension Quail Appreciation Day set for May 10 in Goldthwaite

GOLDTHWAITE – The Texas AgriLife Extension Service in Mills County will conduct a Quail Appreciation Day from 8:30 a.m. – 4 p.m. May 10 in the Mills County State Bank Community Room in Goldthwaite.

“Bobwhite quail are an important part of our region’s wildlife resource, but unfortunately, like the rest of the south, we’re seeing fewer and fewer wild birds these days,” said Tom Guthrie, AgriLife Extension agent in Mills County. “The purpose of this program is not only to appreciate our remaining wild birds, but also to learn ways to possibly increase our numbers in the future.”
